Although this will not affect many of us if any persons that may be affected need to be aware of it. I have all the data that I could get rounded up at: Equal Access To Justice Article! This bill has not passed yet but looks like it may. It only changes the agency in charge of the land in the locations listed. If you have a permit for something that you are doing you will most likely have to re-up that permit with the other agency. The whole bill and locations are on the web site above you may have to copy and paste. There are several files at the bottom of the news article at the above web address that are reliant.

Exert out of bill HR 689 that is in the Senate now

H.R. 689 transfers to the BLM administrative jurisdiction of 11,760 acres of Federal land located within the Chappie-Shasta OHV Area that are currently managed by the FS. Consolidation of land ownership within the Chappie-Shasta OHV Area will allow for a more streamlined administration of recreation use and an improved recreation experience for the area’s users.
In addition, the bill transfers to the FS administrative jurisdiction over three parcels totaling approximately 5,000 acres of public land currently managed by the BLM in Trinity, Shasta, Humboldt, and Siskiyou Counties. These lands are either adjacent to or within areas managed by the FS, and include the 4,830 acre-Tunnel Ridge portion of the Trinity Alps Wilderness (currently managed by the FS through a Memorandum of Understanding with the BLM) which is within the FS managed 517,000 acre Trinity Alps Wilderness. The other two parcels are a 217-acre parcel adjacent to Shasta Lake and a 44-acre parcel along California Highway 89.

Again this has not passed yet but it is good to know beforehand if it is going to affect you.
